It was brought to the attention of the Editor-in-Chief that the article “A review of carcinoma ex-Pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary glands” published in World Journal of Pathology 2016, 5:2 [1] on September 8, 2016 is exact copy of the article published by the same author in Int J Pathol Clin Res 2016, 2:043 [2] with the same title that was published on August 31, 2016. It is apparent that this is a case of duplicate submission leading to duplicate publication, hence, it has been decided by the World Journal of Pathology editorial board to retract the article published in World J Pathol [1].

We apologise to readers that this duplicate submission leading to duplicate publication was not detected during review process as both the articles are published almost at the same time.
